I had a fantastic stay at Kimpton Alton Fisherman's Wharf! The location was perfect for exploring the area, especially with easy access to Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier 39. My room was spacious and well-kept, although I did notice some street noise due to my window setup. Overall, the staff were friendly and hospitable, but I did encounter some inconsistencies with the valet service. Despite that, I would definitely recommend this hotel for a family getaway in San Francisco.

I had a decent stay at Kimpton Alton Fisherman's Wharf, appreciating the clean, comfortable rooms and the vibrant lobby atmosphere. however, I faced some challenges with the dining options, especially due to the Denny's being subpar. The location was fantastic, just steps away from Fisherman's Wharf, and the staff were generally friendly but could improve in responsiveness.

The Essential Queen Room I stayed in was a good size for two people, featuring comfortable beds which really improved my sleep quality. although I was a bit disappointed that the beds were not actually Queen sized as I expected. Additionally, there were some cleanliness issues that could use attention.

During my stay at Kimpton Alton, I appreciated the convenient location near Fisherman’s Wharf, which made exploring the city easy. However, I encountered several issues, including a problematic check-in experience and noise disturbances from the nightlife outside the hotel. The staff was variable; while some were friendly and helpful, others were less accommodating.
Rooms

My first room had earplugs on the nightstand, and the noise from the nightclub was overwhelming. I asked to be moved due to the loud music and commotion outside, which was addressed, but the initial experience was disappointing.

The hotel's location is its biggest strength, as it is within walking distance of key attractions like Pier 39. I felt safe during daytime walks, but issues at night with the area made me hesitant.

Dining at the hotel was not as enjoyable as I had hoped. The breakfast service was slow, and the $50 daily credit was not enough for my needs. I found better options nearby.

While there were some facilities available, like valet parking, I noted that basic amenities like a coffee maker were missing initially from my room. It seemed these could have been better prepared ahead of time.
